Description

"A complete reference guide to Burmese grammar. It presents a fresh, accessible and thorough description of the language, concentrating on the real patterns of use in modern Burmese. The book moves from the sounds and script through morphology and word classes to a detailed analysis of sentence structures and semantic features such as aspect, tense, negation and reduplication. The volume is organized to promote a thorough understanding of Burmese grammar. It offers a stimulating analysis of the complexities of the language, and provides full and clear explanations. Throughout, the emphasis is on Burmese as used by present-day native speakers. An extensive index and numbered paragraphs provide readers with easy access to the information they require"--
